So looking at the theme, some people and places that might fit:

-Beleriand. We already have Numenor, so this makes sense. Could this fit with #10? If we remove the final note D, we're left with Bele + Rian. Beleg means 'mighty', and we can lose the initial of 'grace' to get Bele. Rian... well, both Rians are mortal, but the name apparently means 'crown-gift', so there is a royal link.

Okay, I've convinced myself. BELERIAND for #10.

-Elwing. She doesn't actually die in the water, but neither does Maglor. I... can't fit her to either puzzle, though.

-Deagol. No letters that fit.

-Hurin... but I can't make it work for either puzzle either.

I do note that neither 7 or 9 give a pronoun, so both could be places rather than people. I can't conjure up anywhere outside Beleriand or Numenor that was notably drowned, though.
